Matt Gaetz is Donald Trump’s whiny, grifting doppelgänger
Matt Gaetz’s motive for announcing to the world that the House Ethics Committee was expanding its investigation against him is now clear: Just like his buddy Trump, he’s fundraising off of it, complete with the caps lock on.
“IT’S WITCHHUNT 2.0 AGAINST ME” the Florida Republican yells in an email to supporters reported by HuffPost’s Jennifer Bendry.
That would be a “witch hunt” by a bipartisan committee that has “spoken with more than a dozen witnesses, issued 25 subpoenas, and reviewed thousands of pages of documents” as part of its investigation. The committee, in its very rare public statement about the investigation, said it has found that some of the allegations “merit continued review”—and identified new allegations worth investigating.
